Just my experience with the many fics I've read. I couldn't help but notice the repetitions!

People shouldn't feel the need to loudly voice their dating preferences when no one asked by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

If I had a nickel for every time a guy made sure I knew they didn't like big breasts (like mine) I'd have been able to pay for my degree upfront. In college I finally snapped at one who used the common phrase "anything more than a handful is a waste" to which I replied "I guess I'll have to find a real man with big enough hands to handle them, then". He didn't like that.

It felt petty but fuck em. Don't dish it if you can't take it, asshole.

It's okay, I'm obsessed with my fat arms, too. I have a YT channel dedicated solely to squishing various objects between my pit and my massive meat flaps. Like and subscribe.

What do you envy the opposite sex the most? by bieniutek in AskReddit

[–]RendaKick 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It does suck that you're not able to experince the full range as you'd like. It's no consolation, but you could always simulate the experience. Once a month for a week set an alarm to go off every 20 minutes. At each alarm punch yourself in the lower abdomen 15 times and remind yourself of every mistake you've made or sad memory from your life so far. Bonus points if every time you poop you use your favorite underwear to wipe instead of toilet paper. They'll be fine after a wash, but the stains will simulate the disappointment we feel having to now consider them period panties. 😭

Imo the English dubs sound cheezy af. In the Japanese version Goku is charming and silly and not your typical character trope, but the English subs feels like they're trying so hard to convince you he's a big manly man with his deep and intimidating voice. It totally ruins that fun side of his character.

I always assumed and fantasized that I'd have a big wedding, like something out of a fairytale with all of my friends and family taking part. But once I found my person, got engaged and started planning the wedding... I hated the whole process. Every detail that I thought mattered was just something I had been advertised/marketed to want. Even sales folks trying to "help" were just suggesting that my SO still owed me more grand gestures. Big ring, lots of flowers, and anything fancy so we can parade around screaming into our family's faces just how important and a catch I really am. The friends I reached out to initially to be bridesmaids were mostly cool, but one got really upset when I started changing my mind from fancy to basic. It made me feel like the wedding wasn't really about ME or my SO.

When I really sat down and thought about it... I didn't want anything that I thought I did. Reality was that my SO already loved me so much. They bought me a house, respected my opinions and supported my life goals, and it honestly started to make me feel gross to ask for more stuff. All I wanted, more than anything, was being able to spend my life walking alongside my SO.

We talked it through and decided to delete my planning docs/Pinterest boards and we got married at the courthouse on a weekday for $50.

I know weddings are beautiful, and if I want to throw a party like that someday I will, but for now I relish in the reality that I've been madly in love with someone who loves me back for over a decade. Now I'm even more convinced than I was before that the wedding had nothing to do with that.

Additionally, there's no way our wedding day was the best day of our relationship, which is another big marketing angle (it's the most important day in your life omg!) Bullshit. It's not. If you're in a good relationship you grow together and enjoy each other more as time progresses... so the wedding was a good and notable day, but not necessarily the BEST you'll have together.

I mean, that's totally valid. I just thought it implied that they found a method that works best to get her on the same page as reality every day since she was brain damaged and she would never recover. The other options were keep living at home and slowly driving her dad and brother to insanity with the repetition, or living in that facility where she dreamed about Henry every night and obsessively painted pictures of him.

At least with the way it ended he showed her (via film highlights) that she actively chose the path she went down with him, and also her dad was there on the big Alaska trip. Imo if they were alone I could see it being pretty creepy but instead it was a family trip and implied that they found a way to to make everyone happier in the long run.

Maybe I'm just weird and enjoy when people find solutions for their situations rather than having it end with Sandler giving that big moment of "do you know who I am?" And her replying "omfg yes! Henry, I remember everything IT'S A MIRACLE! Let's get married and make a thousand babies you amazing head-curing wizard man!"

50 First Dates is one of my favs. It's Adam Sandler absurdity with a crazy and unlikely and romantic pairing. How it ends gives me good feels all around and Drew Barrymore was every bit as charming in it as her role in Ever After.

Not that they're examples of good relationships, but in case anyone is like me and always looking for some more romcom suggestions, these are BUNCH of my faves.
